The Suffolk News-Herald article "Excellence runs in this family" tells the story of Eric Riley, Nansemond River High School valedictorian and now a Longwood freshman.

Eric Riley said he was sure he wanted to go to Longwood, even before he applied. "It has a great campus," he said. "And it's a nice and small college, so there's a lot of interaction between the students and the professors."
